Those Germans seem to have done it once again!!

in #flowers7 years ago


Yes...Germans, I'm finding out, seem to be able to put a huge smile on one's face time after time after time...What am I talking about ?


These flowers beautify a lowly bus stop!


Aside from the usual Germanisms, such as the "Lederhosen and Dirndls", the " Golden drink of the gods ( not Ambrosia, but...of course, what else..BEER" and particularly in this gal's humble opinion Weissbier"),  the" Crispy Schnitzel und Pommes" , obviously their "Cakes and fine Bakeries"   , their lovely landscapes, their friendly people, their...." I don't care if I am in a public domain..I have to get changed and so I will strip down and do so here and now no matter who is watching attitude", their "I need to go swimming and don't care if the water is 1o°C so I will proceed to dip in attitude"..yes..all these things may and probably do put a smile on our faces, but definitely one thing that would be impossible NOT to put a huge grin on your face are the flower laden balconies that are on display EVERYWHERE!!

Just About Everything Here is Adorned With Flowers!


Chalet -Style


On our recent Steemcation through the Black Forest here are some of the delightful sights we were treated to...just had to share these creations of beauty and imagination


Unbelievable beautiful Hotel grounds



Bridge in Baden-Baden


More Chalets


And More...


Can you believe it...even fences along the roadway...


Here's one that artfully matched the flowers with their house colours


More chalets....and look at that perfect wood pile....To be envied for sure!

Bridge along the regular road


More bridges decorated...


Could see this one from a mile away!...


I snuck into a side driveway to get this shot....too gorgeous to pass over...


Same here...


Above a store front...


Information booth....can you believe the colours and beauty??


So there you have it... visit Germany in the spring - summer season and you'll will get treated to such sights that after a while your eyes will ache with joy and anticipation...

Thank you Germans...we'll be coming back for more!

Now that looks like a lovely place to visit. Cheers

And even stick around for a while...

and the lattice too!
I love these about them - so pretty isn't it?
I wonder who started it first - them or the Austrians?

I have always been a fan of flowers, I swear my mom must have put it in my genes! These are beautiful flowers everywhere, in deed. What a treat to be able to travel to such locations and enjoy magnificent natural decoration, not the plastic ones...

Thanks for sharing, have a great day and namaste :)

Thanks...hope you get a chance to see these in person..

"If I had flower every time you made me smile and laugh I'd have a garden to walk in forever"...I loved this place very much. I want to live there.

Same here...

this was definitley the case also in Patagonia. The town I lived in, Puerto Varas and a town just north, Fruitillar, both heavily German influenced and lots of flowers

Wow..I never imagined Patagonia like that...sounds interesting...I'll look it up...

Yeah, the Germans started immigrating there in 1840. Prior to them arriving, the land was basically uninhabitable.

I love this we need to add nature in our cities to improve the appearance and the air too.

So true...and it makes us feel happy too

The photos made me cry. Such beauty is just what I needed to see today. I am a born traveler, but I am not married to a rich man. We have our dreams, though, and hopefully one day I will be experiencing this beauty firsthand. In the meantime, keep posting. I love your photographs.
